Shopping is available in Manistee, Ludington, and Traverse City. Our area also has many ATV and Snowmobile trails and trail maps are available online and in the welcome book at our cabins.

Nice home away from home
The furniture and beds were comfortable and not overly worn compared to other Vrbo properties we’ve stayed at. The unit is nicely updated. The amenities were more than expected. The price was spot on, although we didn't stay for the entire reservation due to weather not cooperating with our snowboarding plans.

Road Noise
The cost great. The property was clean! Although, the road noise from the vehicles driving by was terrible. With that said my wife and I did sleep very well. If noise wouldn't be a bother then this is a clean and cost friend place to stay! PS add largers TV's :)
